Hartford RV Show Jan 20-22

by David on January 12, 2012

The first big RV & Camping Show of the winter is the Northeast RV Show at the Hartford Convention Center the weekend of January 20-22.  Stop by and visit our booth if you are checking out new travel trailers, pop-ups or Park Models (see the link above to print a coupon for $1 off admission).  Still a good selection of seasonal sites for 2012, both with or without septic connection.  A reminder for those looking to book either our spring spectacular (April 5-May 20) or our Fall Special (Sept 6-Oct 9) that we do still have some sites on hold for those extended stay bookings, but don’t wait too long, since some special event weekends are starting to get busy (such as Oldies Weekend with Bobby Valli, Family Fun Fest May 18-20, Country Weekend Sept 6-9 and our Fall “2 for 1″ Weekend on Sept 14-16).  Call for reservations at 860-886-1944 (our winter office hours are Mon-Fri from 9am to 4pm).

Happy New Year!!

by David on December 30, 2011

Strawberry Park would like to wish all our campers a safe and happy New Year.  The phones have been very busy with campers calling in their reservations for 2012, especially the attendees of our Bluegrass and Cajun/Zydeco Music Festivals.  Although the early-bird ticket prices for the festivals will be increasing after December 30, if you have not yet gotten through with your call for payment, simply leave a message at 860-886-1944 and we will honor the early-bird prices through Tuesday, January 3 (as the office will be closed for the holiday weekend Sat/Sun/Mon) for those who have left a message over the holiday (and who make their payments on Tuesday, January 3, 2012).

2012 Reservation Notes

by David on December 12, 2011

Happy Holiday Season to all our Strawberry Park campers.  Just a few reminders as we head into 2012…Many campers have already made their reservations for the upcoming camping season, and we have just mailed out reservation reminder notices (click here to see a copy 2012 Rez Reminder ) regarding those reservations, including a note about required deposits and “early bird” ticket prices for our Bluegrass Festival and our Cajun Zydeco Festival.  The line-ups for the music fests are getting great reviews, so we encourage you to reserve early. Also, please be sure to check out the full 2012 Calendar of Events at Strawberry Park, as there are a few date changes for the upcoming year, including…

**Easter is early in 2012 (April 5-8, prior to our “Spring Spruce Up” Weekend)
**Our 7-week “Spring Spectacular” includes our “Family Fun Fest Weekend” of May 18-20
**Oldies Weekend (with Bobby Valli’s “Jersey Boys” tribute) is BEFORE Mother’s Day in 2012 (May 3-6, with Thursday night free)
**Labor Day Weekend reservations may be made 1 year in advance (all local schools are starting the week before Labor Day, so the last week of summer will be offered at the off-season rates, with limited facilities and no daily activities during August 27-30).
**Halloween reservations should be made early, as all the folks who were here during the fall snowstorm on Halloween #4 are looking to book a little earlier in 2012, and we are presenting 3 Halloween Weekends (Sept 28-30, Oct 12-14 & Oct 19-21). 

If you are calling to make your reservations at (860) 886-1944 (or to take care of your existing reservation deposit), please note that our winter office hours are Monday through Friday from 9am until 4pm.
